It's Fun to Play the Piano ... Please Pass It On!

I have agreed to wait to launch the nocturne/waltz recital until after the mazurka recital is over. Many of you are concerned about getting a spot in the recital, so I am setting a date in advance. The sign-up will commence on this thread tonight at 11:00pm, EST.

Okay....11pm EST, that settles it. Please no more changes, it's driving people a little crazy.

No prob...it seems to be a popular recital and I just didn't want a bunch of people logging in early and complaining. (Mostly because I tend to be someone people like to complain to.)

YES! And now I'm complaining about you complaining that I'm complaining about complaints!

Pieces should be claimed via private message. Public posts will not be counted. You may claim multiple pieces, listed in order of priority. To insure the inclusion of as many participators as possible, I will be listing only one piece per person until I feel it is appropriate to list more. When you submit your recording(s), please title the message "SUBMISSION". All submissions are due Saturday, March 22, 2014. Questions and comments are welcome. Good luck and have fun!

If anyone wants to swap, I also like and have played and wouldn't mind switching to:Op 55 no 1Op 32 no 1Op 72 no 1Op 34 no 1

Edit: sorry for the public post. Leaving this up just to indicate willingness to switch pieces.

First : A great thank you for all that you have done to organize and present the Chopin Mazurka recital. Listening to all the performances, I feel that I am getting to know some of the members a little better, since music is such a great communicator.

Second : For the Chopin Nocturnes and Waltzes, please sign me up for the Nocturne in F-sharp minor, Op. 48, No. 2.
